Impulse Space Plans Two Additional Missions

Redondo Beach-based space startup Impulse Space says it is planning two, new missions, which will test its "in-space services" technology. According to the company, its new LEO Express-2 and LEO Express-3 missions will launch in 2024, and perform "in-space services, including payload hosting, last-mile orbital delivery, constellation deployment, low altitude maneuvers and controlled atmospheric re-entry." The company is still in process of putting its vehicles into space, with its first mission, LEO Express-1, planned no earlier than November of this year. The company is sending all three to space on SpaceX on a Transporter rideshare mission.
